I also looked at “cloud computing, virtualization, soa, saas”, and what you can start to see is that slope of cloud computing is steeper than the others. I see the cloud covering what all of these terms offer us, to the point where cloud can be ubiquitous for services. Our product Aware Server offers cloud capability where all of the services (and workflows ) are virtual. Worry less about your servers, and more about your services. The VM’s are nice to help with legacy applications, but moving forward creating a VM for each app will not scale. Meaning, let your services take a slice across 100 machines vs creating virtual machines that take the dedicate resources of a machine. The service virtualization capabilities of Aware Server (http://www.gridgistics.net) allows you to do this, hence spreading your services out within the cloud, and commoditize the OS layer totally.
